 See https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=622994:

 When watching movies at night it is useful to have a mode that limits the
 dynamic range of the audio.  Otherwise in order to hear the dialog you
 have to turn the volume up so high that gunshots and other peaky/bassy
 sounds wake the neighbors.

 Some theater systems offer a night mode that works well for this case.

 Sebastian Dröge mentioned that support for this would be better integrated
 directly in PulseAudio.
